variable NullToZero not defined

I am getting a goofy error while compiling the jobs.
In Transformer Stage, all the column transformations where I am using "nulltozero", have become "Red". I checked out other jobs and it's the same. The jobs which were running fine till now, are suddenly not even compiling because the "nulltozero" columns are red now !
When I use "nulltozero" in the constraint of a transformer, I get the error message: " constraint error: variable nulltozero not defined".
Can anypone suggest me what to do? I am lost...
TIA...

Hi,
My 1 cent
Are you selecting the routine by clicking or typing it. Chances are that there might be a spelling error or a space overlooked. Although this might not be the case since all your jobs are not compiling and were running fine before. but just in case......
Also was the routine renamed/deleted ifrom the manager...a remote possibility

Hi,
I checked the manager. The "nulltozero" should be in the "Transforms" folder but in my current project, it's empty. I don't know how it got deleted!
I am not able to import the inbuilt transforms from other project. (read only).
Any other way?
TIA

Create a copy of the Transform (copied one would not be readonly).
Export it and import it the target project and change the name to NullToZero.
Or
Use this command to make it updateable
Code: Select all
UPDATE DS_TRANSFORMS SET READONLY='NRO' where @ID='NullToZero'
and Export

Make sure the routine is compiled. Someone may have opened it and hit SAVE.

Export NullToZero Transform from another project, selecting the "include read-only objects" option. You will then be able to import it into the project from which it has been deleted. It will still be read-only.

Thanks a lot, Ray. Sorry for replying late. Well that day, when I attempted to take a back up of the project (export), everything became normal. I mean the NullToZero transforms are no more "Red". And I was able to kick off the master sequence with out any problem. But I am still not able to see these transforms in the manager. I think I need to rebuilt indices on this project.
I want to figure out what excatly caused this.
We will do some more cleanups in this project.
Thank you all for all your inputs!
